Dark in Dark’s Clothing
Puzzling fogs descend from the fen Symbols, omens and signs of the end Grinding locks and cogs, ninth of the ten Rancid meats hurled from Eastern skies, high tides Tithes and tied bonds, tendering of debts, surrendering to death Downward, downward tends the West, the fallen crest The millionth coin toss so it lands on…
